That trick (calling the operator) has NEVER worked for me.
And I have tried in several states around the country in my travels.

Hmm.... interesting.

I thought that operators were forbidden from releasing this information,
the thinking being that the person trying to find out the number may have
gained access without permission.  Maybe that's changed?  Or maybe it's
dependent on location or (gasp) operator?

the number that seems to work EVERYWHERE is 0....  "hello, operator... what
number am I calling from?" has always worked for me.
